THE SOPRANOS (HBO) - 12.14 million viewers tuned into the long awaited season premiere of "The Sopranos" on Sunday, off 10% from its record-setting fourth season opener in September 2002 (13.4 million) not to mention down 15% in adults 18-49 (6.2/15 vs. 7.3/17). Nevertheless, the premiere easily topped the February 22 series finale of "Sex and the City" (10.62 million, 5.8/13 in adults 18-49) and won its time period among all networks, broadcast and cable, in adults 18-49. Among the 27 million HBO homes, "The Sopranos" also averaged a series high 23.8 rating/32 share in households. HBO reps are quick to note any declines are likely attributed to Nielsen Media Research's refinement of how it tracks the pay channel's various networks. Previously, Nielsen's average included all HBO-branded channels in the show's Sunday, 9:00/8:00c time slot.

SURGEONS (ABC) - Patrick Dempsey ("Iron Jawed Angels") has been cast as Derek, a surgeon and attending physician who supervises the show's interns, in the Shonda Rhimes medical drama pilot at Touchstone Television.
